As regards the theatres which have been recently explored and excavated, I have consulted (in addition to Dörpfeld’s book) the following sources:—Hermann, Bohn, and Fränkel, _Ausgrabungen zu Pergamon_, Berlin, 1888, p. 40 ff. (theatre at Pergamon); _Athen. Mittheilungen_, 1894, p. 65 ff. (theatre at Magnesia); _Papers of the American School of Archaeological Studies at Athens_, 1888, pp. 1-34 (Thoricus); _American Journal of Archaeology_, 1891, p. 253 ff., 1895, p. 331 ff. (Eretria); _Ibid._ 1889, p. 267 ff., 1893, p. 388 ff. (Sicyon); Defrasse and Lechat, _Épidaure_, Paris, 1895 (Epidaurus); Schultz, Gardner, and Loring in _Excavations at Megalopolis, Supplement to Hellenic Journal_, 1892 (Megalopolis); Chamonard, _Bulletin de Corr. Hellénique_, 1896, p. 256 ff. (Delos); _Athen. Mittheilungen_, 1893, p. 404 ff. (Tralles); Lanckoronski, _Städte Pamphyliens und Pisidiens_, Wien, 1892 (contains a very valuable account, with excellent plans and illustrations, of certain Asia Minor theatres hitherto but little known); Schrader, _Berl. Philolog. Wochenschrift_, April 16, 1898, pp. 508, 509 (a brief preliminary notice of the interesting theatre at Priene, lately excavated). The subject of the choregic arrangements has been ably treated by Capps in his _Dramatic Synchoregia at Athens_ (_American Journal of Philology_, xvii. 3. pp. 319-28), which I have followed in most points. For certain questions connected with the Dionysiac festivals I have consulted with advantage Körte’s article _Zu Dionysos-Festen_ (_Rhein. Museum_, 1897, pp. 168-74), and Wachsmuth, _Das Thukydideische Urathen_ (_Abhandl. der Sächs. Gesellschaft der Wissenschaften_, xviii. pp. 1-56). As for the costume of actors and chorus, the most valuable and instructive of recent treatises are Körte’s _Studien zur alten Komödie_ (_Jahrb. des archaeol. Instituts_, 1893, pp. 61-93), and his articles in _Athen. Mittheilungen_, 1894, p. 346 ff., and in Bethe’s _Prolegomena_, p. 339 ff.; Crusius, in _Philologus_, xlviii. p. 696 ff.; Poppelreuter, _De Comoediae Atticae Primordiis_, Berlin, 1893; Loeschcke, _Athen. Mittheilungen_, 1894, p. 519 ff.; and Bethe’s _Prolegomena_, p. 35 ff. Other articles on special points from which I have taken various suggestions are—Neckel, _Das Ekkyklema_ (Friedland, 1890); Cook, _The Thymele in Greek Theatres_ (_Classical Review_, Oct. 1895); Reisch, _Griechische Weihgeschenke_ (Wien, 1890); and Svoronos, Περὶ τῶν Εἰσιτηρίων (_Journal International d’ Archéologie Numismatique_, 1898, i. pp. 37-120). I should also mention Albert Müller’s _Die neueren Arbeiten auf dem Gebiete des griech. Bühnenwesens_ (_Philologus_, Suppl. vi. 1891)—an interesting and judicious criticism of the various writings about the Greek stage which had appeared shortly before the publication of the article.
